Heading to Davos with @HRC for #wef18! Looking forward to being part of the growing conversation on #LGBTQ equality.

Adios, Davos. While this was the most #LGBTQ inclusive week in Davos yet, most visibility happened on the margins. #LGBTQ equality ️‍ deserves a place on the main stage. So much more work to be done! @wef#wef18
